Chapter 558 - 558: She’s Getting a Nosebleed!
In the end, Cao Zhuzhu had lunch with Pei Song. After all, the two of them finished work at the same time, so Cao Zhuzhu could not find a reason to refuse.
Besides, she thought that if she refused, Pei Song would ask her about the outburst just now.
So, she got into his car to make him shut up.
Halfway through the meal, Cao Zhuzhu received a transfer of 98,000 yuan from Boss Li.
She thought that the 8,000 yuan was the interest that he owed her for a few years, but it wasn’t.
[ “I sent you an extra 8,000 yuan, did you see that? You must tell Boss Pei more good things about me and tell him that I’ve returned your money. You’re the best!” ]
“F * Ck it!” Cao Zhuzhu swiftly returned the 8,000 yuan to him.
He wanted to bribe her with 8,000 yuan?!
Pei Xuan’s chopsticks paused for a moment and he looked at her.
The little girl had a bad temper.
He liked it.
Cao Zhuzhu turned off the silent mode of her phone and placed it on the table.
Pei Song put down his chopsticks and looked at her attentively. “What can I do for you?”
Cao Zhuzhu ate her food in big mouthfuls. “Don’t sign the contract with Boss
“Alright.” Pei Song said, “anything else?”
Cao Zhuzhu replied, “no.”
Pei Song raised his eyebrows. “Are you sure?”
Cao Zhuzhu looked at him. “Are you full? Then I’ll pack the rest home.”
It looked like she was planning to leave.
“No.” Pei Song frowned and picked up his chopsticks again. He even called the waiter over and ordered two more dishes.
That afternoon, Su Ji brought Dong Xiyou back to her house.
When Xu Mingzhi heard that she was kidnapped for seven days, she was so angry that she crushed a cup on the spot.
She could empathize. Anyone who bullied someone else’s daughter should be killed!
She also told Dong Xiyou to stay at her house as long as she wanted.
For the next few days, the police had been investigating Dong Xiyou’s case, but there was no breakthrough.
Dong Xiyou’s case caused quite a stir in A City.
A City had been very safe in recent years, so a bizarre incident like a girl who lived alone and was kidnapped for seven days would definitely cause panic among many people.
More importantly, the criminal had not been caught yet, which proved that there might be others who might be in danger in the future.
Social media platforms kept up with current events and recommended educational videos related to women’s self-defense.
When the police announced Dong Xiyou’s case to the public, they kept her personal information strictly confidential. Even Dong Xiyou’s parents, who were far away in their hometown, didn’t know that the victim was their precious daughter.
After reading it, they even called Dong Xiyou and told her to be careful when she was alone in A City. Dong Xiyou was not good at lying, but she still covered it up.
Others might not know that the person was Dong Xiyou, but the employees in Lychee TV’s did. It spread like wildfire.it.
Dong Xiyou didn’t mind. She could chat with Su Ji on her bed every day before she went to bed. It was as if she was soaking in a honey jar. She didn’t care about anything else. Moreover, her manager gave her paid time off because of this matter. She could decide her own working hours.
Dong Xiyou’s biggest regret now was that the Xu family had too many rooms. Aunt Wu had helped her clear out a guest room, otherwise…she would be able to share a room with her baby!
After staying in the Xu family for five days, her body had basically recovered. She was even a little chubbier than before she was kidnapped…
After taking a shower at night, she was wearing a pair of pajamas with a strawberry pattern in the guest room. She looked at the mirror and pinched the extra flesh.
In the past five days, Madam Xu and Aunt Wu treated her like their own daughter and cooked delicious food for her.
Su Ji would buy supper every other day to eat with her in the room. However, Su Ji was still slim even when she ate with her every day…
Dong Xiyou accepted her fate. Fortunately, she was not a celebrity, so it did not matter if she had gained weight.
However, she was more concerned about her current state of being idle at home every day. She felt useless. Moreover, she had always trusted her intuition. The perpetrator…was still in the television station!
Her room was next to Su Ji’s. Su Ji came out of the bathroom after taking a shower and she could hear the sound. After waiting for more than ten minutes, Dong Xiyou shuffled out.
Su Ji’s door was only half-closed, but Dong Xiyou stood behind the door and knocked politely. When Su Ji answered the door, she carefully poked her head out to open the door and enter.
“Su Ji…”
In the next second, she saw Su Ji putting on a silk nightgown with both hands. Her smooth, milky skin flashed past, and her figure…
Su Ji turned around to look at her, a hair tie dangling between her lips. Dong
Xiyou watched as she tied her long, blow-dried hair behind her head. The hair tie circled around her hair neatly a few times and tied it into a low ponytail.
Dong Xiyou swallowed hard. A few seconds later, she raised her hand to cover her nose.
Her nose hurt as if it was on fire. She felt that it was about to bleed…
She really wanted to show those who questioned what’s so good about Su Ji that made CEO Pei obsessed about her..
Dong Xiyou thought that she would be dressed in ten minutes, but she was not in a hurry to get dressed.
Su Ji casually buttoned a few buttons. Seeing Dong Xiyou covering her nose, she walked towards her and pulled her hand away to take a look. There was no blood.
Su Ji went out for a while. Dong Xiyou stood rooted to the ground and looked at her. She heard her footsteps heading to the refrigerator on the second floor, followed by the sound of the refrigerator door opening and closing. Then, her footsteps got closer and closer as she returned to her room.
She took a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed it, and handed it to Dong Xiyou.
“Drink some water. Is the air in the room too dry? I’ll get you a humidifier.”
Dong Xi’s young face instantly turned red. She quickly took the water and rubbed the plastic paper outside the water bottle with both hands. “No, I…just ate too much!”
“I see.” Su Ji rubbed her head and threw the clothes on the bed back into the closet. “Are you used to living here?”
Dong Xiyou took a sip of water, swallowed it, and nodded. “Yes, but…’
? Su Ji kicked the cabinet door shut and leaned against it. She looked at Dong Xiyou. “What’s wrong?”
Dong Xiyou thought for a moment and said, “Su Ji, I think…l want to go back to work at the television station!”
